NovelGoldChapter 453:
However, today celebrated Lionel’s birthday, and she had already rejected several of his proposals. Another
refusal would border on discourtesy.
“Alright,” she conceded with quiet acceptance.
“Let's proceed!” Lionel’s demeanor instantly brightened, as though merely sharing Freya's company could
sustain his happiness indefinitely.
It seemed Freya needed no extraordinary efforts to serve as his wellspring of joy.

“Surely you jest? We're well acquainted with your actual granddaughter,” someone countered.
“Precisely my point.”
“Perhaps she’s your granddaughter-in-law?” they speculated with growing interest.
Lionel had conscientiously avoided publicizing Kristian and Freya's relationship, honoring her preference for
discretion.

Instead, he declared, “My worthless grandson doesn’t merit Freya's companionship.”
With this pronouncement, every gaze instinctively shifted toward Kristian.
“Even Kristian falls short of worthiness?” exclaimed Elvin Clarkson, one of Lionel’s oldest friends.
They recognized Kristian’s exceptional qualities.
